Following are the highlights of observations of the top court:
- At least there is a positive beginning regarding CBI autonomy
- (On CBI autonomy) Law will have to be amended. Let Parliament debate the suggestions in the affidavit on the floor of the house. Ultimately law will be enacted by Parliament.
- (On CBI lawyer) We don't want a situation where the CBI faces reluctance in saying what they feel, because a government lawyer is representing them
- We are okay with panel on appointment of CBI Director
